Today I have super exciting news. I have been secretly working away putting together my storefront for my new notonthehighstreet shop, and now it is finally LIVE!

My storefront!

I have had to take lots of new shiny photographs of my products too. These are a few of my favourites. You may have noticed that I have also updated my Etsy shop with new photos, so it's looking a bit brighter over there too.

An illustration created for Alia Gargum's interview with fashion designer and artist Simeon Farrar in Amelia's Magazine. I fell in love with this dress as soon as I saw it - it's such a pretty design, and I loved illustrating it.

This morning I received a very exciting package in the post - my copy of my Little Hedgehog t-shirt, which has been printed by All Tropical!

You may remember that I won the All Tropical weekly design competition last month with my hedgehog design - well, this is the result! It's ace to see Mister Hedgehog looking all cute on a real t-shirt. :]

About Me

My name is Madi. I like to cut and stick and collage and draw and colour-in. I also like teeny tiny sketchbooks, pretty illustration magazines, cute woodland creatures, my typewriter and my polaroid camera. I have a huge collection of beautiful and interesting scraps of paper, which I use to create my illustrations. When I grow up, I'd like to illustrate children's books, build a treehouse, and buy a tortoise, who I plan to name Sparky. I'd also quite like a kaleidoscope.
If you're interested in my work, or just want to say hello, please email me at madi@madiillustration.co.uk, or visit my website and check out more of my work; www.madiillustration.co.uk. I dare you.
